CHICAGO (CBS) - A senior at Columbia College has made it to the finals for the Playboy Magazine Hottest College Girls contest.

Kristen Sidor, a marketing major at the downtown school, is one of eight finalists among hundreds of entrants who applied on Playboy.com. She told the Columbia Chronicle student publication that she submitted her application and photos after hearing about the contest through Facebook.

The Indiana native said she does not aspire to be a model professionally, but the Hottest Cottage Girl contest “would look good on my resume because it’s Playboy,” the Chronicle reported.

The contestants for the Hottest College Girls competition submitted their non-nude photos to the publication last month. Voting will end Oct. 25, the Chronicle reported.

While Sidor made the finals, the Chronicle reported that as of its press time for the issue dated Monday, she was in seventh place with 2.35 percent of the vote.

The two top contenders in the contest will be featured on the Playboy Web site, and will win a party sponsored by Playboy and Coty Fragrances, the Chronicle reported.

Acknowledging his state has “come under the harsh glare of criticism” over a controversial new “religious freedom” law, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence said he wants state lawmakers to pass new legislation that makes clear businesses cannot discriminate against gay and lesbian couples.

Police said the robbers used a prop in at least two holdups in the Fuller Park neighborhood. They set up a road construction barrel in the street, and when a motorist gets out of his or her car to move it aside, the robbers pounce.
